Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh decided to send kicker Justin Tucker out for a 61-yard field goal with a chance to take the lead late against the Detroit Lions. Tucker rewarded his coach for having faith in him.

Tucker snuck the ball through the uprights, which gave the Ravens an 18-16 lead with 38 seconds remaining.

Just how close was this kick to hitting the upright?

The 61-yard field goal was the longest of his career. His previous best was a 56-yard field goal in 2012.

Tucker made all six of his field-goal attempts on the night and accounted for all of Baltimore's points. The 24-year-old also made history with his kicks, according to the Elias Sports Bureau via SportsCenter:

Justin Tucker is the first player in history to kick FGs in the 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s, in terms of yardage. (via @EliasSports)
